The way C.J. Gardner-Johnson sees it, Bears defensive coordinator Dennis Allen’s biggest challenge — folding Jaylon Johnson and Kyler Gordon back into his cornerbacks room — won’t turn out to be much of one at all.

“He’s just putting the best players in the best positions,” Gardner-Johnson said after Friday’s 24-15 win against the Eagles. “We’re all good in our own ways. To have Kyler back, to have Jaylon back, it’s adds more versatility. We can play more man, we can blitz more, we can drop in coverage. It gives a different look each time we go out there.
